1/17/2019Michael - hi there ...if you are already  officially  pre approved for a loan for your scenario - great ...if you aren't pre approved - I would  highly recommend  getting this  taken care of ...the process is easy / free and  it will help you become more knowledgeable and familiar with the  numbers and the  loan  options  you have to choose from ...this is also wise to do in case you want to make an  offer on any property  as  most sellers / listing agents  will  require this to be done  as part of assessing  your offer …..thanks ...Dave SKow  Eagle Home Mortgage ( Movement Mortgage as of Feb 1)
